I should have known that ordering pizza on top of everything that had gone wrong this afternoon would only serve to make things much more complicated and frustrating.

I should have known when I got home, I should have taken one of my Red Baron Philly Steak and Cheese pastry pockets, thrown it in the microwave, and barred the door to all other forms of humanity outside of my roommate.

I'm not ordering from Pizza Hut again for a long long time.

And I am reminded again, that when very little is going your way, eliminate the possibility of more going wrong by terminating your exposure (at least for a short while) with the things that are highly prone to going awry.

It actually wasn't the delivery guy at all this time. The pizza took nearly two hours to arrive. When it finally got here, it didn't have one of the toppings. The delivery guy took the pizza back for me and I called into Pizza Hut to tell them that I was sending it back and wanted a new one (despite having waited so long). They took the new order and hung up. The manager then called me back and said that they were completely out of the topping that was missing. I told them I didn't want the pizza at all then (why pay for something and eat something you don't like?) So I just paid for the cheese sticks that came with the original order.

I was completely cool about it the whole time. It's just that it's like the fourth time that the Jackson Ave. Pizza Hut had fucked up my order. No use trying to order from someone who's always going to fuck up and leave you unhappy (sounds like a relationship, doesn't it? :) and take your money, too. I've been super nice about it every time and had continued to order from them, but no more.

I would much rather order from University Avenue Pizza Hut, but I thought they both had separate areas that they delivered to. University has delivered to me before but that was because Jackson Ave. Hut had completely run out of pan crust. I felt really sheepish when I was asking them to make an exception for me. However, if they commonly deliver across town, I'll call them (University) all the time instead.
